I want to start off by saying that this show is hilarious. The amount of times I'm losing it in my room seriously... Selim and Akgün together are a riot. "My good son, my wonderful son, my stupid son" lmao I was like, THATS ME WITH AKGÜN! MY STUPID, WONDERFUL SON THAT I LOVE WITH ALL MY HEART!! The car chase lmao...Akgün being, "everything's over, they were short term feelings" and Selim threatening him with the gun when he said that lol. He won't let Akgün live in either situations.

The watch scene 😭😭😭😭. I DONT WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT!!! AKGÜN GETTING THE ACCEPTANCE HE'S ALWAYS WANTED!! I'm gonna start crying all over again. The chemistry between Alperen and Ali is amazing! Watching that scene a second time, it made me feel like Selim was also sort of, in a way, going to give his blessings for Akmur. Idk, what do you think?

Selim having second thoughts after seeing how devastated both were after the breakup, lol that was nice to see; how his conscience was eating him up

CanSel are just so damn adorable! Literally the cutest divorced couple ever

I'm so glad we got to see how bad the breakup was affecting Akmur. Like they didn't goes over it, I really liked that. Poor Akgün got a double whammy dealing with the breakup and photo. And my girl Yağmur!! I felt so bad for her, crying at school. Literally the worst place to have a breakdown (and oh, I WANT THOSE SELFIES!! WHERE ARE THE SELFIES?? WHERE ARE THEY???). Her happiness when Akgün called her. Legit disliked him there for 1 minute bc she was so happy to see him and him avoiding her hug. Ugggghhh Akgün

I don't care but I do not feel one bit bad for Kaan. He deserved it. Dude just killed any hopes he had of getting back with Yağmur. Not that she would get back with him but now Selim will kill him if he even looks at her

Naz & Soner!!!! (Will not complain about them getting a better edited kiss. Nope. Nuh-uh. I will not be one of those fans. Just kidding, I complained but like for a minute)

Yesss!!! I'm so glad the Bedri thing came back to Yağmur. I want to see mom and daughter take him down. If anybody can do it, it's them two. Especially Yağmur, like she said, she won't rest until she exposes him

Oh and Soner being the bestest friend ever!?!? He was serious when he said he doesn't forget the good things people do for him. He was on Akgün watch all day lol. I want more scenes of him and Akgün just being roommates

Anyways, some people are thinking that Selim and Akgün have something up their sleeve after that last shared look. Idk and honestly I'm just here for the ride. No theorizing for me lol

Tbh this show is so damn funny. And emotional. And dramatic. And romantic. There’s so many good parts about it, it’s just great. Akgün and Selim’s scenes at the police station and during the car chase absolutely cRACKED me up!!! And then the scene with the watch absolutely WRECKED me. Seeing Akgün get that acceptance he’s been looking for meant soooooo much! Alperen did such an amazing job in that scene. I was just a sobbing mess watching it. But, yeah when I first watched it the first thing that came to my mind was, is this watch meant to symbolize yağmur, is he giving his blessing, is he finally okay with them being together???? And idk, I’m excited to see how Selim treats them next episode, it’s going to be interesting seeing this development now that he’s really accepted Akgün . And as much as I loved seeing Selim feel bad about Yağmur hurting (that heart to heart they had in the garden was so so good), I just loved seeing how guilty he felt about Akgün. Like those moments when Selim was complaining about him and Canan was just like please, you know you love him and you know you feel guilty. Or when Akgün mentioned how they just can’t seem to separate, like no matter how mad he gets at Akgün, they’re bonded for life, they can’t get rid of each other!!!

Cansel was absolutely adorable, I really feel like it’s just a matter of time before they really do start dating again and I can’t waittttttt! Now, the Akmur fight. I was genuinely so mad at Akgün in that moment. He was breaching that type of jealousy that I hate in these dizis, that possessive, controlling type and I just hope they don’t really continue on that path. I so badly wanted him to apologize for it and they just made it seem like him beating up Kaan was enough and it wasn’t. I was proud of how she stood up to him in that moment, but the fact that Yağmur didn’t really make him answer for it kind of upset me. And in regards to the whole Kaan thing, what Akgün said was basically in the same vein of what Kaan was saying. Sure what Kaan said was a bit more extreme, implied something worse than what Akgün said, and was more insulting. And Akgün’s statement was more so based on just jealousy and the ‘ex-boyfriend’ of it all (plus him still being angry about the marriage situation) while Kaan’s was more so basic slut shaming, but it’s all the same ‘you can’t touch any other man while we’re together’ foolishness and it’s just gross. That being said, as much as I hated what the actual akmur fight was about, I LOVED the scene. Like idk what it was about it, but Alperen and Hafsanur’s chemistry and was on point in that scene. Between Yağmur just yelling at this brick wall that is a jealous Akgün and just being so done with Akgün’s low ass emotional iq, and Akgün only being able to focus on her calling Kaan her ex-boyfriend, that scene is just great!!!

Speaking of that scene, on youtube there were a bunch of comments saying like oh is this akgün and yagmur that we’re watching or canan and selim or wow akmur has really turned into cansel. And I just find it so interesting. I mean there have been examples in other episodes, but in this episode in particular they showed how similar the two couples are. Like of course it’s been brought up before how Akgün and Selim had similar upbringings, how Selim sees himself in Akgün. And in 14, you could see Yağmur following in similar footsteps as Canan, sacrificing herself for love. But in this episode they like specifically called it out multiple times. Idk it’s interesting. I wonder what they’re trying to say with that or where they’re going with it.

But that scene with Yağmur and Akgün when they’re talking about his brother legitimately made me cry. The way she is always teaching him to hope and dream just makes me so emotional. She is so fucking good for him, i can’t believe it.

Oh yeah, and as much as I love Akgün and Selim living together, I am so excited to see Akgün and Soner as roommates!! I adore their friendship so so much. Seeing how concerned Soner was for Akgün and seeing him constantly watch over him was so nice. And I loved Naz and Soner’s kiss it was so sweet. I saw a comment somewhere about how Soner did what it took Akgün 13 episodes to do lmaooooo honestly Soner made his mooooove!!

#yeah im not big on theorizing either #but idk it did kinda seem like akgün and selim have something up their sleeves #sonyaz ask #sonyaz spoilers #xinging-unicorn

Bishop Briggs Interview

Bishop Briggs

Photo by Jabari Jacobs

Bishop Briggs is a Los Angeles-based singer and songwriter of dark pop. It’s difficult to confine Bishop Briggs to a genre or category. Born in London to Scottish parents, Bishop Briggs spent her formative years growing up in Japan and Hong Kong – she soon fell in love with music through underage trips to Japanese karaoke bars. Days after graduating high school, she moved to Los Angeles to hone her artistic vision with the help of producers Mark Jackson and Ian Brendon Scott. Bishop Briggs’ music transcends the limitations of singular genres, blending elements of folk, pop and electronic music into a wholly unique sound. Her debut single ‘Wild Horses’ charged to the forefront of the music scene, reaching #2 on Spotify’s Global Viral 50 charts, garnering airplay on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 Show as well as prized spots in Acura’s 2016 TLX and ESPN’s NFL Playoffs advertisements. With new material and live performances on the way, Bishop Briggs is poised to be one of 2017’s biggest breakout artists… The Seventh Hex talks to Bishop Briggs about her musical upbringing, performing at the Rose Bowl and Moesha…

TSH: How has being so well travelled and residing in different parts of the world allowed you to be more expressive with your musical perspectives?

Bishop: I truly believe it’s about what’s playing in your living room and I was really lucky that my parents always played Motown music and Frank Sinatra and Otis Redding, but I think if it wasn’t for growing up in Japan, I wouldn’t have gone to so many karaoke bars, where it all began, and where I originally saw my dad singing and got inspired myself.

TSH: In what ways does having the combination of yourself and your producers Mark Jackson and Ian Brendon Scott give you the ability you to excel in such a satisfactory way?

Bishop: When I met Mark and Ian, they truly were a game changer for me. In our first session together, we wrote ‘River’ and after I left, I remember sitting in my car that day, listening to a voice memo of the song and for the first time I felt like I was being myself fully.

TSH: With so much accessibility to everything in this day and age, is mystery an element you value a lot with your music?

Bishop: I do think mystery is a rare thing in this day and age because there is so much accessibility, but I hope that I’ve found the balance. I love being able to talk to people through Twitter and hear everyone’s thoughts and to connect with people at shows.

TSH: Tell us more about the song ‘Pray’ entailing leaning into the light as much as you can…

Bishop: 'Pray' was written during a time in my life where I really had to make the conscious decision to send light to a particular situation. You always have a choice in how you react to situations and I decided to use this song as my outlet.

TSH: Can you sum up the feeling in walking out and performing at the Rose Bowl in three words?

Bishop: ONE HUGE GULP.

TSH: As you’re always trying to come up with melodies, what do you find yourself mostly drawn to with this regard?

Bishop: I grew up listening to Motown music so I think I'm always drawn to writing soulful melodies and whatever feels emotionally right for the song.

TSH: Performing live is often the pinnacle for most artists. Tell us more about how you feel so spiritual in the moments onstage…

Bishop: Well, being on stage is when I feel the most free in my life. It feels like an out of body experience and I'm always thankful for that.

TSH: Speaking of spiritual, does meditation help to give you clarity in such a mad world?

Bishop: Short answer, YES. It's easy to forget to breathe and I think what I love most about meditation is it gives me a moment to just simply express gratitude for where I am.

TSH: Did you feel compelled to pen a track like ‘River’ knowing it’s about pushing one to their limits…

Bishop: ‘River’ was written during my first session with Mark Jackson and Ian Brendon Scott, who are the producers behind the song. I am always compelled to write and I don't think you can ever predict what a song will be about. Truthfully, music can take on a life of its own, no matter how much you try to plan!

TSH: How did the vocal lessons you took in Hong Kong for many years help you to hone in on desired vocal styles and techniques?

Bishop: I worked with Christine Samson for 8 years while living in Hong Kong and it was hugely impactful. She taught me the importance of certain techniques and how to have longevity with your vocals!

TSH: Do you still have fond memories of watching Moesha daily?

Bishop: Most definitely! In Japan, it was all that played on TV! I was obsessed.

TSH: Which is your favourite zip-up Adidas jacket?

Bishop: I'm gonna go with the classic black and white striped one because that was the first one I ever bought so it has some nostalgic sentiment attached to it!

TSH: Talk us through the following tweet; ‘finding a laundry machine on tour is like finding marshmallows in your lucky charms’…

Bishop: Ha! What I meant was you are so happy when you find marshmallows in your Lucky Charms! But it can sometimes be rare and you need to search for them. Which is the exact same feeling as when you come across a laundry machine on the road!

TSH: Does downtime require watching TV?

Bishop: I love any docuseries. You name it, I've probably seen it!
